Join Dr. Arielle Zibrak, Associate Professor of English at the University of Wyoming, to take a deep dive into who Edith Wharton was and how she came to be such a popular and well-regarded novelist. You’ll see the New York of Wharton’s time: a place of extremes between wealth and poverty, success and misfortune, hopeful optimism and bitter realities. You’ll gain an appreciation of the complex history of New York’s Gilded Age and Wharton’s relationship to its culture as both a participant and a critic.
